Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie in trouble.

Sheffield United striker Oli McBurnie could be in trouble with the FA after he was caught making a lewd gesture to Cardiff City fans during the South Wales derby.

The former Swansea striker was in the away end at Cardiff City Stadium on Sunday — he was also in the home end at the return fixture at SA1 back in October — alongside centre back Joe Rodon, who is currently sidelined through injury.


And while he appeared to be enjoying the occasion, he was caught taunting Cardiff fans with an obscene gesture with his hands and, according to The Sun , a sanction for the player is 'almost certain'.

It is said that English football's governing body is usually reluctant to take action simply on photographic evidence, but the obvious nature of McBurnie's obscene hand signals means it is likely the player will be reprimanded.

A possible sanction could see the 23-year-old Scot hit with a formal FA charge and a fine for bringing the game into disrepute - however The Sun claim that is likely.


Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder has apparently summoned the striker in this morning to speak to him about what happened.

Looks like it’s a regular thing for him. His Twitter has a video of him at another game doing the same thing.

All taken down this morning though. Strange that...tool

Bradford City Fan / John Nolan:

I can’t see that Chris wilder will be upset with him,after all,he’s always associated with the blades firm,they used to come to Bradford to watch him play for us.

What's the difference between a footballer making such gestures or a teacher or someone working in Tescos?

Lock him up 2 years for supporting Swansea, and an extra year for crimes against fashion

Teachers should be educated lock them up for two years also if supporting Swansea

Joking aside there is no crime for looking like and acting a dick, so I wouldn't have thought anything will happen?

Quite.

Id probably say it is because he is supposed to be a role model that kids can look up to and because he is also a professional who represents their club. It is not a good example in either case.

Not that is bothers me anyway. He just looks an absolute tool. If I was sheff United boss I would probably be more concerned of him failing a drugs test. Looks off his nut haha

A player in the Scottish league was sacked for doing the same at a celtic rangers game.

As a professional footballer he would d have a code of conduct to adhere to.... Thats where he'll be in trouble with his club and FA.

Personally not got a problem with it, he probably gets abuse every week but it amazes me just how daft this guy is doing it in the first place.

He’s a ginger Scottish jack with no dress sense his life is hard enough as it is.

ITS A DERBY Expect Banter From Anyone In The Stadium.

Hope you didn't mind me adding the missing word Llan.

On this occasion he was a paying customer supporting his team, he was not a professional footballer on the field of play. I not in the slightest bothered by his antics and certainly wouldn't be offended or intimidated by them. He just another Jack prick end of.

Quite right, there is no reason why he should be 'in trouble'.

I saw this incident AFTER the game and it stemmed from the coin throwing that your mate, the Swansea apologist, thinks was insignificant and not worthy of reporting

Theboy was stupid (and intoxicated) but three arrests all day and this wasn't one of them

Just saying, like

Yes was something and nothing! All can say was a bit stupid (given hes a footballer) as police and hundreds of cameras that were focussed on that end.

His only ‘crime’ is being moronic. He’s made himself a laughing stock.
